I Installed Ants today. I heard about it and found the idea of anonymus p2p great ;)
Now my problem is I'm connected to 5 neighbours and I get only very bad search results. When I search for .mp3 or .avi I get som 80 or 20 results nothing for any specific search. Is this network dead? What can I do to connect to more peers or get better search results?

Yeah, it a small experimental program. The policing efforts of antipiracy organizations have not been effective enough to warrant further development of anonymous technology.

Hi, all. I'm still around. So is the program. It gets an update every once in a while and it still has people who use it around the world, particulary in Italy where copyright law is even more represive then in the US. Lucky for us in the US the RIAA their movie industry counterpart have prooven over the last 8 years that they can't really do anything. We can still download anything we want from Bittorent or Gnutella with a very minimal chance of problems. It is also a good thing that Ants remains as a backup option should the copyright laws become more repressive.

I don't do much beta testing these days. I feel I have done my fair share of work. I am concentrating on my swordmanship. If anyone is interested in some tips shoot me a messege.

You do need one. I think 9 times out of 10 you are here before a mod.

I vote for some more mods!!!

With Democrats soon in control for the White House and the Congress, and notoriously known for favoring Hollywood we may see a serious crackdown on filesharing. We may need to look re-focus on anonymous technology.
